Explanation of Solution
The reaction between
Given that dissociation constant for the above reaction is
The concentration of each reactant species and the product at equilibrium is given as,
As we know,
Substitute the concentration
To solve the above equation, let
Numerical value of ‘y’ is negligible as it is lesser than
Therefore, at equilibrium,
Concentration of
Concentration of
Concentration of

- For each d electron configuration, state the number of unpaired electrons expected in octahedral complexes. Give an example complex for each case. (Two answers are possible for some of these cases.) (a) d2 (b) d4 (c) d6 (d) d8arrow_forwardExperiments show that K4[Cr(CN)6] is paramagnetic and has two unpaired electrons. The related complex K4[Cr(SCN)6] is paramagnetic and has four unpaired electrons. Account for the magnetism of each compound using the ligand field model. Predict where the SCN ion occurs in the spectro-chemical series relative to CN.arrow_forwardFour different octahedral chromium coordination compounds exist that all have the same oxidation state for chromium and have H2O and Cl as the ligands and counterions. When 1 mole of each of the four compounds is dissolved in water, how many moles of silver chloride will precipitate upon addition of excess AgNO3?arrow_forward
